Armistice
Day
Armistice Day occurred
on November 11th 1918 at 11am. All the soldiers came back and
teachers from schools they attended made an athletics day to remember the
soldiers and invited other people to come. The only problem was that it was on
a school day so the parents couldn’t come so in the 1960’s they changed it to a
Saturday so all the parents could come and celebrate. The Peace Shield is 220
yards. People watch the Peace Shield back then it was the only one but since
then people have been donating shields.
